Rightly so, by the sounds of it. Atta boy!! :D I walked or rode the bus to school. My kids rode the bus until high school activities made it impossible. It was a PITA, but they loved it....instead of an hour ride on the bus, it took us 15-20 minutes. It was kinda nice in a way though, about...

Hope they didn't say it was MRSA....that stuff is showing up all over here. scary

That's not a bad idea. Gigi, your sunscreen recommendation is going to be tested .... 85° and sunny today.

Sorry it didn't work, Butch. Good that you tried though....maybe he'll come up with something. I've been dodging the rain all morning....only time I got rained on was picking up the mail. Not bad. I took a bunch of dead limbs off some pines yesterday, am sad to say I'm going to have to cut...

I think that's a good idea, Gigi. If I can get the monster tree 'undressed' maybe my son can drag it out since he's off school for a few more days. I have a string of the new LED lights across the top of one of my living room walls. I'm thinking about just leaving it there all year. Kinda...

I think so, too...bibs would be out though. I hope Gigi is having fun, and SOMEONE brings a camera! :D

I'm waiting for pictures, Gigi. How bout the whole gig, dress and all!!? :D I'm not sure what I'd do if I was invited to a formal affair again....Carhartts or Levi, do you think? :|:

I hope she appreciates your efforts, Gary. I sure wouldn't do it. I agree with Gigi, you're a good man....tell her we hope she knows how lucky she is!! :D

I got 'iced on' (little ice balls, not wet like sleet) yesterday while outside fencing....not quite ready for all the real white stuff yet. I've pulled the heavy clothes down from the attic now, though. Much better. I'm not sure what today is going to bring.....the guys left for a gun show in...

Gigi, I'm MUCH better, thanks! Steve....the little town I live in/near is that way still in some ways. I did the multiple egg basket thing over the past couple decades...but now I've popped them all back in the same one. I'm using same bank that all my in-laws have put their money for their...

Definitely. If they don't have this tied up for you by the end of the day WITH a huge apology, get it taken care of and then go else where. I just pulled one of my accounts out of a bank a few weeks ago. They DID get things straightened out, but not without alot of work on my part. I don't...

(5'1", Al....I shrunk) Thanks guys....guess we have a good 'old farts' club here. :D

I would cool off, first. Get your ducks in a row, then go down to the bank. You'll need the copy of the statement that shows when the check was originally deposited. I would call to see if they have a copy on file of the deposited check itself. If this starts bouncing other checks you'll...

My son does usually, we're just not up to speed right now. I use that Monster Mall I gave him some years ago, I think I posted about it here or at AS....the one with 'wings'.

It's probably time for the annual firewood & wood-burning-stove thread. I did plenty of splitting wood this morning....old hedge, like bouncing the mall off a rock. I only split three pieces, but as far as I was concerned....it WAS plenty! :D

I'd forgotten that you had geothermal, Al. duhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Al...how is it you're able to go this long before firing up the woodstove? I'm sure you've said before, but I forget. Mike put in an external air source a couple years ago and I'll have to admit, I really like it. Ugly.....but nice that there are no sparks to contend with. Speaking of...

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Brian, I didn't know you had a 'soft' side. Good to see. ;) My dad feeds the chipmunks at home....has over a dozen running all over the place. Until the hawk visits, that is.

I agree, Gigi! Willie....no need for backup (this time)....he's all for the idea! Thanks for the offer though. :D I just have to fit it into the schedule. He's even agreed that just booking a night at the lodge would be better than camping since we'll be squeezed for time.
